The use of semi-colon after a question mark is not typographically correct

| Nov 19, 2020 at 5:44 | comment | added | Aaron | @Max The option of a community wiki has been discussed. I (the OP) am not opposed, but have asked to wait to see if I can better adapt the question to fit as a canonical question. If we do go the community wiki route, it would probably also get moved to Meta, which I would also support. (For the time being, as the OP has done all of the work, the OP would like to receive the credit. However, should the question get re-opened, which is my goal, you could certainly add your own answer[s] and receive any reputation gain for it/them. For now, I'm just keeping the list of links up to date.) | |
| Nov 19, 2020 at 3:46 | comment | added | Max | Can this be made into a community wiki? I don't have a problem with rerunning a question if it would be beneficial to collect answers in one place, but I don't see why this OP should get the reputation for it. | |

| Oct 6, 2020 at 17:35 | comment | added | Aaron | @topoReinstateMonica I could definitely get behind this. Please consider adding it as an answer to the current meta discussion on canonical questions: Should we create a FAQ about Music Theory? | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 17:33 | comment | added | Aaron | @Dom I see your points. Let me start by seeing if I can turn this into a better canonical question. Give me a few days. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 16:57 | comment | added | Нет войне | Perhaps one approach could be to make a meta post (or posts) listing 'good answers to common questions', so that when we do get common questions we don't have to search for them anew every time. A slightly trimmed-down version of Aaron's answer here (listing the best 'am i too old' questions) could be a part of that? | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 14:31 | comment | added | Dom♦ | I'd be for moving this to the meta, but it's not really a fit for the main site as is. It's mostly just pointing to other answers around the site which is not the point of a canonical question. You should be able to point to a canonical question to get the answer, not have the canonical question point elsewhere. IMO, almost all questions in your answer should be closed as a duplicate of the question this is closed a duplicate of. I'm happy to talk about this more in chat if needed. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 12:04 | comment | added | Albrecht Hügli | I vote to reopen this question. It is unfair to close it and nitpicking to say it is a duplicate. It is quite clear that this isn‘t a problem of Aaron and the intention is very serious. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 11:45 | comment | added | Albrecht Hügli | I support the intention of Aaron. My first thought was: oh, he might be applying for moderator. I would also support this intentions. ;) | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 0:33 | comment | added | Aaron | @topoReinstateMonica Agreed about Meta. My current thinking is to see what happens over the next day or so. One advantage to being closed vs. locked is that the answer can be edited to add new links as they appear. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 0:30 | comment | added | Нет войне | @Aaron maybe a post on meta clarifying your intent might be useful, if there isn't one already? I can see why a mod might want to lock such a post, but at the moment the single "This question already has answers here" link undermines the answer. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 0:27 | comment | added | Aaron | @topoReinstateMonica Appreciate your checking. I was not intending for it to be closed. Short of knowing why individual close votes were cast, I certainly allow for misunderstanding. | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 0:24 | comment | added | Нет войне | @Aaron was it your intention for this to be closed? Or are people misunderstanding the intent? | |
| Oct 6, 2020 at 0:06 | comment | added | Aaron | @BrianTowers The answer you linked to is related, but is a different question. The intent here is to compile links to all the various age-related questions to make them easier to find, rather than to answer the question itself. | |
| Oct 5, 2020 at 23:35 | comment | added | Aaron | @Tim Indeed. There is a certain irony. :-) | |

| Oct 5, 2020 at 15:06 | comment | added | Tim | Wasn't the whole point of this question to cover any/all of the potential duplicates? And put them all under one banner? | |
